In a significant judgement, the Supreme Court has made it clear that those tenants who misbehave with the owner of the premises are liable for eviction. Further, those tenants who are causing damage to property are also liable for eviction. The Madras High Court has directed the authorities concerned to take steps to demolish unauthorised and illegal constructions in three months in Ooty, Gudalur, Kothagiri and Coonoor in the Nilgris district. A consumer court has held that failure to execute and register sales deeds may amount to deficiency in service. Where the builders sold certain apartments and gave possession after receiving full consideration but the sales deeds with respect to them were not executed and registered, it was held to be a case of deficiency in service. The Supreme Court has held that the government or a statutory body cannot cancel allotment of a housing plot merely on the ground that he or she was already a beneficiary of land allotted through a cooperative housing society. The apex court said that if the acquisition of property through a particular agency was not specifically barred, then there could be no restriction on such acquisition. In a related development the Supreme Court has also ruled that an industrial development corporation cannot cancel the allotment of plots unilaterally without following procedures, after the allottee has invested in the land. The Supreme Court has held that the market value of an acquired land need not necessarily be calculated on the basis of the value of adjacent land as several other factors need to be considered while fixing compensation
